“Unnamed dog”

He was over scored

The #dwts judges are so obviously trying to rig this for Robert Irwin. Alix Earle was better in the head to head. By a lot. Irwin’s earlier dance was not worth all 10s. He’s a boring dancer who mugs for the camera, does something very weird with his neck while he dances, and breaks frame.

Jon Stewart "Can't F**king Believe" Democrats Caved on the Shutdown

Dude. Unless you are calling for Schumer to step down as senate minority leader we aren’t interested.

@durbin.senate.gov

Schumer (probably):
What could possibly stop our momentum after winning across the board on 11/4, the largest protest in US history, court victories, and the American public blaming the Republicans. Oh yah, me. Here we goooooo…

It’s like he’s trying to depress Dem donations and voter turnout.

Grotesque behavior by the Democrats. The people want champions to fight for them. Abject failures. The two retiring should resign. Vote the other 6 Dems out.

We had all the momentum

•The American people were blaming Republicans

•A landslide Democratic victory

•Courts ordering Trump to fund SNAP benefits

Yet you couldn't convince your caucus to fight for us

It's the final straw that breaks the back of your tenure as leader, Senator

Time to step down

Don’t you dare cave @schumer.senate.gov! Dems swept all races on 11/4. People widely blame Republicans as they should. If you don’t have to stomach to fight for the people, resign.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106.

12 days of work in 106 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

I agree with this. Execs are hoping AI will allow them to eliminate jobs but it’s not there yet. Just slop right now.

‘This is kidnapping — plain and simple’: ICE arrests 9 employees at Allston car wash The employees were detained Tuesday morning before they could present their documents, according to the car wash’s manager.

It’s not even “papers please” anymore…

Now it’s “we’re kidnapping you because you’re brown and we don’t care that your documents are five feet away in your work locker”

This is illegal, immoral and cruel.

22 masked agents to kidnap nine car wash employees:

There were 13 elections last night for a statewide office.

Democrats swept all 13.

That’s 1 in NJ. 3 in VA. 2 in GA. And 7 in PA (all judges, retention and regular).

They won 12 of the 13 races by double-digits, with margins up to 24%. The only other race, the tightest, they won by 6%.

Schumer needs to go and if he won’t go on his own, he must be primaried. @aoc.bsky.social 🙏🏻

Texas Banned Abortion. Then Sepsis Rates Soared. ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis is the most detailed look yet into a rise in life-threatening complications for women experiencing pregnancy loss under Texas’ abortion ban.

Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to our analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%.

(Published February)

Now it's time for Democrats to build on the momentum and push Trump and his Congressional sycophants on the shutdown. Democrats must hold the line on ACA subsidies and ensure that government employees get paid for the time lost in the shutdown. It's the right thing to do, morally and politically.

Seems like a security risk

Pay attention Corporations and Oligarchs. You miscalculated the American people. You bet on complacency and tied your fate to a fascist by throwing $ at him because you prioritize lining your own pockets over democracy, merit, & decency. Recalibrate now.

Democratic party leadership has been on autopilot for ten years, they weren't losing to fascism, fascism isn't popular enough for them to lose to fascism, they were allowing it to fill the void where their leadership should have been. Tonight we're seeing that we have other options. They should too.

The only way this country survives is a mass exodus from social media.

Yah. We know. The consumer debt situation is dire. Couple that with layoffs, wage deflation, and price inflation and you have a self inflicted recession. Way to go Donny. Idiot.

@warren.senate.gov this issue is tailor made for you to lead the Dems on

Agree. Trump is breaking his own campaign promise is what I was alluding to. He is the criminal.

ICE didn’t exist until after 9/11. It should be abolished.

It’s disgusting. ICE isn’t rounding up criminals. They are hunting and kidnapping parents and community members with no due process.

How Americans Are Blocking Trump’s Militia Ordinary people in forgotten places are standing between families and fear.

They thought they could silence us. We had a surprise for them:
